During Women in Construction (WIC) Week and beyond, we are celebrating the valuable contributions of women in our industry as they build new futures where we live, work and play.

This year, Balfour Beatty’s employee affinity group, Connecting Women, is encouraging employees to unite under the theme of “Paving the Path,” which recognizes that every individual’s journey adds strength and value to our company.

Regardless of how they arrived here, the contributions of our employees matter. Some have followed traditional paths into construction, while others took unexpected routes, finding their passion along the way.

In celebration of WIC Week, explore the stories of four tremendous trailblazers at Balfour Beatty:

• New business development director, Allison Black, has a unique drive to connect clients with teams and project solutions that best suit their needs.
• With dependability and consistency at the forefront of everything she does, Kerry Hogan has become a cornerstone to the business.
• Safety is top of mind for Kristi Hudson, a safety assistant and unsung hero in Florida who manages compliance and risk management for employees.
• With a nickname like “Momma Jen,” it is hard to ignore the mentorship and support that Jennifer Rhoads provides to her team in Arizona
